Rolling down my cheeks
From my eyes
Right down by side of my lips
And down from my face
To the ground
Mixing with my mother earth
And sharing my pain with her
Yes this is my strength my mother
Out of me in your lap
And you only know
How week I have grown
Due to the pain I own
You only can see my tears
And feel the pain I bear
She left me unspoken
After seventeen years of love
Though I alone owe it but
I always had been her help
I dreamed a beautiful bridal set for her
She dressed it for one she love
No I was not bad
I was good
Good friend indeed
Best friend in need
She wanted me to be with her
As a friend forever
But I failed
Failed as a lover
She knew my crush
But never had that feeling for me
For her wish I left
Left myself and my love
I even let her tie
A knot of relation round my wrist
The knot which break
Every bit of me
And in pieces of mine
I found a rebirth
Birth of SOUM
Soum which rises in the dark
Soum which shows
The path in dark
You know dear mother
Soum loved
Soum cried
Till the river dried
Now these tears
And my smile
Both are penned
And paper cry
Cry for justice
Cry for love
Cry for humanity
Cry for spirituality
Cry to my heart
To let my heart cry ….
